We have a big maple in our yard and more through the neighborhood. The sound of wind running through their leaves is very calming.

Unfortunately, this is exactly what is turning (and has been turning) the US into a shithole country.

Animal Cruelty is basically every K9 Unit’s motto.

Not to defent the corporate dystopia, but usually to qualify for whatever kind of insurance these companies have, they are required by the insurance company to drug test. At least, that’s how it is at the company I work for. If they don’t drug test, the company is held liable for anything the employee does, and insurance won’t cover it.

Sarcasm tag isn’t necessary. Those who benefit from it see these as legitimate questions.

I remember when this happened. I think it’s wild that she is still being detained for it.

From what I read on other posts, it sounds like Geico was the one not following suit because nobody else would insure it in the first place.

This might make sense for people with six+ figures sitting in a savings account, but the average person today doesn’t have enough cash to think about earning interest on it. For them, paying off a debt now would be cheaper in the long run. For the most part, at least.

I like these points. Preventing a future expense by paying less now is always worth it, if you can afford it.

Another reason why I’m glad I made the switch to Lemmy.

I worked at home depot, and our manager made people sign a form before having a Hi-Lo load a pallet of floor tile into their truck because it would cause their suspension to bottom out. They’d do it, and drive off with zero leeway on their shocks.

We had one guy come in bragging about how his super-expensive hydraulic suspension could handle it. We loaded 2 pallets of tile into his truck bed. I bet he felt every little crack in the road driving to the job site.

Aren’t submarines supposed to sink?

Web page was actually an image! Whoops! (I get this error a lot)

Like, literal skeletons? Or metephorical ones? Either way, I’m pretty sure we’ll find both

It looks like something you could lift up, like a sewer cover or something. Some madlad probably swapped them.

Honestly, I went to a small sling backpack to get everything out of my pockets. It gets uncomfortable, but I didn’t realize it because I was putting everything in my pockets for so long. Sitting with one side higher because of my wallet in my back pocket, and a big bulky phone shoved against my thigh, etc. Now I have a belt case for my phone and everything else in my bag, and jeans have never been more comfortable.

It’s almost as if being publicly traded is bad for the stability and longevity of a company. Who would have thought?

[Disclaimer: I only read the headline]

Governments should not be measured in “value” of any financial aspect, but rather the quality of living of the citizens they govern. Electing a leader of questionable human rights morals would be a disaster.

I guess I do!

Goof Troop A Goofy Movie would be one of my picks. 1995, I think.
